Designers can extend battery life and reduce size in space-constrained Internet of Things (IoT) devices with two nanoPower modules with built-in inductors from Analog Devices.
The MAXM38643 1.8 to 5.5 V input, 330 nA quiescent current (IQ), 600 mA buck module and the MAXM17225 0.4 to 5.5 V input, 300 nA IQ, 1 A boost module with True Shutdown feature a low IQ and deliver added battery life. By integrating a preselected inductor, these micro system-level IC modules also accelerate time to market and are up to 37% smaller in size compared to a standalone IC plus external inductor.
Applications include space-constrained consumer products, wearables, medical drug delivery, sensors, IoT devices, as well as wired, wireless and industrial products.
The modules have peak efficiencies of 96% and 95% respectively, consuming low power to deliver long life and reduce carbon footprint for both battery-operated and wired always-on devices. Both products utilise Analog Devices’ uSLIC power module technology featuring stacked, integrated inductors that enable designers to reduce solution PCB surface area and eliminate the time spent on component selection and board placement.
